When/how are credits used in usage based pricing?
The document doesn’t specify: https://media.roboflow.com/roboflow-rate-table.pdf
Are AI Labeling credits deducted each time images are uploaded/labeled or summed over the month and then credits are deducted?
IOW, if I upload one image and use AI Labeling does that immediately use one credit or can I upload 100 images and AI label them one by one over a month and that costs one credit?
Similarly for augmentation over multiple training sessions. Does generation of 1000 images in 20 training session within a month use one credit or 20 credits?
Thanks
Hi @saschwarz - thanks for posting!
AI labeling credits are deducted when an image is labeled (each image counts once in a session, but will count twice if you label the same image across multiple sessions).
Generation also consumes credits when you generate those images.
So to be pedantic 
To minimize my use of credits I should upload many files at once if I’m going to use AI Labeling; uploading 150 files would use 2 credits, while uploading 1 at a time and using AI Labeling would use 150 credits.
No - in both cases it’s charged on a per-image basis. You’d pay the same amount for 150 1-image jobs or 1 150-image job.
Oh so it is fractional credits? Maybe https://media.roboflow.com/roboflow-rate-table.pdf could be updated and clarified to say it was 1/150th of a credit per image for AI Labeling instead of the current wording?
